5 reasons to buy the 2021 Audi Q7
1. Luxurious interior
If you're looking for an SUV that surrounds you in high-end finishes and materials, look no further than a 2021 Audi Q7. Treat yourself and seven passengers to luxurious features, soft leather seating, natural wood trim, and modern styling. If you want to take it to the next level, look out for the 2021 Audi Q7 Prestige Luxury Package, which adds a faux suede headliner, Nappa leather seating, and massaging front seats to help work out the kinks that build up during a long drive.
2. Fun to drive
Buying a seven-passenger SUV doesn't mean giving up the pleasure of driving. A 2021 Audi Q7 is a thrill to drive, thanks to a sport-tuned suspension and a pair of peppy engines. If you want the most spirited driving experience, opt for the available turbocharged V6 (standard on Prestige). A 2021 Audi Q7 with a V6 engine can hustle from zero to 60 mph in just 5.7 seconds (according to the manufacturer, when new)—an impressive feat for a vehicle this size.
3. Surprising towing capacity
Starting with up to an estimated 4,400 pounds, the 2021 Audi Q7 with a four-cylinder engine has the towing capacity to handle most light-duty hauling and small RVs, when properly equipped.
4. Modern technology
It doesn't matter what trim catches your eye; you'll get a host of modern in-demand tech. Basic driver assists, such as blind-spot monitoring and forward automatic emergency braking, are standard on every model. The Premium Plus trim includes upgrades like four-zone automatic climate control, adaptive cruise control, and LED lighting, while the Prestige trim adds an impressive heads-up display. Smartphone integration is standard on all 2021 Audi Q7 models.
5. Loaded with standard features
Getting into the entry-level 2021 Audi Q7 doesn't mean losing out on some of the options on your wish list. Standard equipment on a 2021 Audi Q7 includes a panoramic sunroof, handsfree power tailgate, tri-zone climate control, leather seating, and full smartphone integration. Conveniences like power-folding, third-row seats, and heated front seats are also included as standard.
